Lyrics
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this life
Tryin' to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money, then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould
But I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
No, I can't change my mould, no-no
Well, I've never prayed, but tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no-no, no-no, no-yeah
No, I can't change my mould, I can't change it
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this life
Tryin' to make ends meet, trying to find some money, then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
You know I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no-no, no-no, no
I can't change my mould, no-no, no-no, no
I can't change my mould, no-no, no-no
Yes, I can't change my mould, oh, no-no
I said that I can't change my mould, no-no, no
I said I can't change my mould, no-no, no
I said that I can't change my mould, no-no
I said that I can't change my mould, no-no (have you ever been down?)
I said that I can't change my mould, no-no (have you ever been down?)
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down? Have you ever been down?
